In recent years, with the improvement of people's living standards and the reduction of physical activity, diabetes has become a common chronic disease.
Many people with diabetes choose to exercise in moderation in order to control their blood sugar levels. Among them, "walking more" has become a widely recognized way to lower blood sugar. So, is there a basis for "walking more" to lower blood sugar?
1.Long-term negative emotions
If you are in a state of mental tension or emotional excitement for a long time, it will secrete a large amount of various hyperglycemic hormones in the body in a short period of time, such as norepinephrine, adrenocorticotropic hormone, glucagon, growth hormone, etc.
When these hormones rise rapidly, blood sugar levels continue to rise for a short period of time. If this phenomenon occurs for a long time, the risk of inducing diabetes is particularly high. 
2.Stay up late
Staying up late is already a common occurrence for modern young people. Watching dramas, playing games, and accidentally spending the whole night.
Such an irregular schedule for a long time can cause the biological clock to be disturbed, and some people may even have sleep disturbances, and they cannot sleep at the time they should sleep. When staying up late becomes a habit, the body's immunity will decrease, and then the body's metabolism will have problems.
3.Congenital factors
People with a family history of diabetes are at high risk. There is also a congenital risk factor, women with gestational diabetes have a higher risk of developing diabetes, and if the baby weighs more than 8 pounds, the risk of developing diabetes in the future is also higher.
4.Sedentary
Nowadays, many young people have developed a sedentary habit in life and work, which is also an important reason why many young people suffer from diabetes. I usually sit for 8 hours, and when I get home, I never sit when I can lie down, and I have a sharp increase in body weight due to a long time of sitting and lack of exercise.
A cross-control study published in the authoritative journal "Journal of Diabetology" in 2016 showed that a 30-minute walk after a meal in diabetic patients reduced the area of the postprandial blood sugar curve by about 22% compared with patients who did not walk.
At the end of 2020, Italy published guidelines that analysed 28 studies and 20 randomized controlled trials.
Finally, it was found that patients with type 2 diabetes who performed regular walking training could reduce the average by 05% glycosylated hemoglobin level, lowering diastolic blood pressure by 197mmHg, which has a positive effect on cardiopulmonary function, blood pressure and metabolic function.
1.Pay attention to exercise time
Nowadays, it is winter, and many diabetics like to exercise in the morning, especially on an empty stomach, which is very dangerous, which can lead to hypoglycemia.
Diabetics can choose to walk around 90 o'clock in the morning, when the sun comes out and the temperature will not be particularly low, and there will be an hour or two after breakfast, which is a good time to exercise.
2.Be ready for exercise
There are two main points of exercise preparation mentioned here, the first point is the preparation of sports equipment, although diabetic patients can exercise anytime and anywhere. But when exercising, other things can not prepare a pair of comfortable sneakers, you must prepare, otherwise it is easy to get injured.
The second point is to prepare for exercise, that is to say, to warm up before exercise, and adequate warm-up is a prerequisite for ensuring sports safety.
3.Pay attention to the intensity of your exercise
At the beginning of walking and towards the end of walking, it is important to slow down the pace of walking and not to start or end the exercise abruptly. Once the body has adapted to the rhythm of the whole exercise, the intensity can be gradually increased, so as to avoid damage to the body and the blood circulation speed can be slowly restored. 
4.The type of exercise
There are many types of exercise, but which type of exercise is better for lowering blood sugar?At present, it is recognized that the exercise with the best effect on lowering blood sugar is aerobic exercise.
Aerobic exercise refers to the exercise mode in which aerobic metabolism mainly provides the required energy for exercise during exercise. For example, aerobic exercises such as swimming, brisk walking, jogging, cycling, tai chi, aerobics, square dancing, etc.
Therefore, friends who want to lower blood sugar through exercise can choose one that they like and suit themselves among the above aerobic exercises, and then develop a good habit of exercising every day. On the basis of aerobic exercise, if it can be combined with some strength exercises, the effect of lowering blood sugar will be better.
1.Stay in a good mood
Mood also has a crucial impact on the health of the body, if you maintain a happy mood, it can speed up the metabolism, and can also improve the blood flow speed of the whole body, which is conducive to maintaining the stability of blood sugar. In addition, stabilizing mood can also improve endocrine function.
2.Control your diet
The level of blood sugar in the blood can be affected by a variety of factors, especially diet. To control blood sugar, patients should eat a reasonable diet and limit the intake of high-sugar and high-fat foods. Eat more foods rich in dietary fiber to delay the stay of food in the digestive tract and prevent a postprandial increase in blood sugar.
Eat more whole grains, such as oats or millet. Drinking a cup of green tea every day can increase the speed of metabolism, enhance antioxidant capacity, and promote the absorption of sugar by cells.
3.Maintain a normal weight
In order to improve high blood sugar as soon as possible, all that needs to be done is to control your weight. Many people have an increased incidence of certain chronic diseases under the influence of obesity, which may also make high blood sugar continue to worsen, which in turn induces diabetes.
If there is a sign of elevated blood sugar and the body has a tendency to become obese, you should control your weight. Stable weight control, keeping the body healthy, and helping to stabilize blood sugar. Otherwise, you may lose your weight and your blood sugar or other indicators may spike.
4.Reasonable work and rest
In order to maintain a stable state of blood sugar, you should pay attention to the routine of work and rest, which is also an important measure to keep blood sugar stable. Many people usually have unreasonable work and rest behaviors, and may have a bad habit of staying up late. Under the influence of staying up late, insufficient sleep time may interfere with the endocrine level and may reduce the function of pancreatic islets.
In this way, insulin cannot function properly after it is secreted, which may cause blood sugar fluctuations. Therefore, in the process of keeping blood sugar stable, you should pay attention to maintaining a correct routine. If you get enough sleep every day, your blood sugar will stabilize and prevent the disease from progressing.
